Mexico extradited 26 high-ranking cartel figures to the US as part of a deal with the Trump administration to mitigate the threat of tariffs on Mexican imports. Attorney General Pam Bondi emphasized the severe consequences these individuals will face for their crimes. US Ambassador Ronald Johnson highlighted the collaboration between the two nations against violence. This deal follows a previous transfer of 29 cartel members, including Rafael Caro Quintero, and reflects a shift in Mexico's approach under President Claudia Sheinbaum, who is balancing cooperation with sovereignty.
